Third stay at this house which should say it all. House is well appointed, very comfortable and clean. There is an outdoor porch with grill for balmy weather. This time we really enjoyed the sunroom with electric fireplace and table for puzzling. Multiple televisions with streaming options for those looking to watch a movie or football game. Short trip to Asheville, Waynesville, or the Blue Ridge Parkway for those who want to get out and about. Strongly recommend.
Great experience and beautiful location. The host was easy to talk to and very pleasant. Enjoyed everything that was provided and the hot tub was a huge hit. Can’t wait for our next trip to Maggie Valley.
Absolutely perfect! Great location, awesome views, privacy, fenced in area for our furbaby and also roll-away gates at entry/exit of the porch to contain our furbaby. Very comfortable accommodations with a fully equipped kitchen with anything you may need. Loved the sunroom with its own fireplace to ward off the chill as you enjoy morning coffee while taking in the beautiful view. A very nice and unique accessory was a towel warmer. So indulgent wrapping up in a warm towel after a shower. We loved it so much, we reserved an entire week for next year.
As soon as we arrive we love the cozy place well maintain with great little touch to make the costumers content. Thank you for a great place. We would love to come back. Oh by the way your re commendation about restaurants were excellent. Thank you again.
We had a great time staying at this property.It is cozy and clean and all the amenity is there.Hot tub was definitely a plus!! We would definitely rent this property again if we decide to visit!!
We had a blast at halfback ridge. The hot tub and view were the perfect addition to a wonderful girls trip to the mountains. Jacquie was fantastic and super responsive with any questions. Would absolutely recommend and will return!
The house was beautiful. The beds were comfortable. We are right across from the fair grounds so at night we could listen to music for free. The driveway to get to the house is a bit scary, but most driveways in North Carolina and Tennessee take some getting used too. Once we drove up it once we knew what to expect and it was fine. The host has a lot of great tips on places to hike and eat. We would stay again.
We went skiing at Chatalooche, which was a short 10 min-ish drive from the cabin. The cabin was near some really yummy, authentic Mexican food, not to be missed. The views of the mountain range and the quietness of the area made for a lovely family vacay. Would def recommend and would love
to return!
Halfback Ridge is in the heart of Maggie Valley and is easy to get to. Property is flat with plenty of parking. The cabin is one of the nicest in M.V. that we have rented in 15 yrs.. The weather was excellent for early April and we enjoyed the wrap around porch. Cabin is very clean and well stocked. Popcorn machine was a treat. Comfy beds were nice. We won't hesitate to rent again as we visit M.V several times throughout the year. Book it and enjoy it.
We returned to the cabin at Halfback Ridge after a visit in 2022. We were as happy with our stay this year as we were the first time. The accommodations are spacious and comfortable, and conveniently located to see and do things in the area. We plan to return again next year.
We were in town for a car show at the event field. It’s literally right across the street! Definitely walking distance, but only if you’re up for a big hill! House was very clean and exactly as described.
Wonderful vacation. Home was very nice. Fireplace put out the heat - kept the thermostat lower than usual. Living room comfortable. Kitchen fully stocked. Hot tub was fantastic. So close to Cataloochee Ski Area- very convenient. Restaurants were close as well. We love Cataloochee and are repeat visitors. Would definitely stay again. Host was very responsive and easy to work with. One of our best Cataloochee experiences!
Our stay at Halfback Ridge cabin was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by pristine cleanliness that immediately put us at ease. The hot tub and fire pit were the perfect spots to unwind and take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.
One of the highlights of our stay was definitely the popcorn machine! It added a fun and nostalgic touch to our evenings in. Plus, being able to bring along our furry friends made the experience even more enjoyable.
What truly sets Halfback Ridge cabin apart is the attention to detail. It seemed like every possible need or desire we had while traveling was already anticipated and provided for. From kitchen essentials to cozy blankets, we lacked for nothing during our stay.
We are already contemplating our return trip to Halfback Ridge cabin and cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone seeking a tranquil and relaxing getaway. Many thanks to the owner for sharing this slice of paradise with us!
This property exceeded our expectations. The host was amazing and so was the property. The property has everything that you would need for a comfortable stay!
